The American Association for Education Research (AERA) released the list of its most-read journal articles of 2014, and Changing "Course": Reconceptualizing Educational Variables for Massive Open Online Courses, a TLL research publication, made the "Top 10." Rankings were based on the number of times articles were accessed online. In massive open online courses, low barriers to registration attract large numbers of students with diverse interests and backgrounds, and student use of course content is asynchronous and unconstrained. In the article, the authors argue that data are not only plentiful and different in kind, but require reconceptualization.
